As per Chan, Mark Makes Her a Better Mom

Chan is a blessed mother of three.

The traffic anchor gave birth to a set of twin girls named Devyn Rose Kono and Alyssa Doris Kono and a boy named Ryder. The pair welcomed their first child, Ryder, in December 2010. She professed that her son’s first word was “helicopter.”

Later, after four years, they added another two members to their family, welcoming twin girls on May 9, 2014.

Chan and Mark frequently spend time with their children. They have gone on several vacations with them over the years.

For instance, in 2020, they went on a trip to SkyPark at Santa’s Village. She taught her girls to ice skate. At first, her daughters were scared, but they were ready to ditch her pretty fast after learning. She said it was a magical place, and it had been fun experiencing it for the second time.

She frequently posts vacation images and praises her husband, calling him the best father ever.

They also watch football games in addition to other things. They attended the August 2022 Dodgers games, and it appears that they support the team.

All in all, Chan feels lucky to have her significant other, Mark, by her side.
